Verse 1:
AmG
If I'm caught at a dance party without my dancin' shoes,
FE7AmGFE7
And every-body dances on my bare feet; shame on me.
AmG
If I'm mindin' my business, just doin' the right thing,
FE7AmGFE7
And you try to front me off in the street; shame on you.
AmG
If a family's waiting for that special blessing to come their way,
FE7AmGFE7
But they ain't tryin' to get on their knees and pray; shame on them.
AmG
And if we live in a time where every nation's fighting 'round the world,
FE7AmGFE7
Yet we can't all agree that peace is the way; shame on us.
Chorus 1:
AmGFE7
Shame on me, shame on you.
AmGFE7
Shame on them, shame on us.
AmG
Shame on me, shame on you,
FE7AmGFE7
Shame on them, shame on us; so what the fuss?
Verse 2:
AmG
If I gotta get up early in the morning for a job interview,
FE7AmGFE7
And I for-get to set the stupid a-larm; shame on me.
AmG
If my children are playin' outside, like little children do,
F
And you come 'round there tryin' to,
E7AmGFE7
Bring them some harm; shame on you.
Am
Should I be drivin' through a Klantown,
G
Find a restaurant to get me some food,
FE7AmGFE7
And someone says; "hey boy, we don't serve your kind"; shame on them.
AmG
And if we live in a democracy and you don't use your power to vote,
FE7AmGFE7
Knowin' some would like to turn back the hands of time; shame on us.
Chorus 2:
AmGFE7
Shame on me, shame on you.
AmGFE7
Shame on them, shame on us.
AmG
Shame on me, shame on you,
FE7AmGFE7
Shame on them, shame on us; so what the fuss?
Verse 3:
AmG
If I'm hooked on a habit, knowin' damn well it could cost me my life,
FE7AmGFE7
Yet I keep doin' what I should do with-out; shame on me.
AmG
If you're locked in a marriage and your other half just gives you abuse,
FE7AmGFE7
Yet you've con-vinced yourself that there's no way out; shame on you.
AmG
If we're jammin' the music and somebody's go the au-dacity,
FE7AmGFE7
To say that they can jam it better than us; shame on them.
AmG
And should there be just a handful that believe that we are totally free,
FE7AmGFE7
And there's no need to fight for e-quality; shame on them.
Chorus 3:
AmGFE7
Shame on me, shame on you.
AmGFE7
Shame on them, shame on us.
AmG
Shame on me, shame on you,
FE7AmGFE7
Shame on them, shame on us; so what the fuss?
